Vitirié

Vitirié is a sovereign nation in the Maia world. The micronation is among the least populated nations in the world with a predominant ethnic group considered by social anthropologists as one of the most enigmatic. Since the early 2000's, the Vitirese have rallied with increasing tension as years went by for a fully autonomous Vitirese state, devolving from Arkaystia, in the Vitriyy archipelago. This came to a climax in January 2017 during a diplomatic crisis which saw Arkaystian officials expelled from the already somewhat devolved archipelago, winning support from other Maian minorities and eventually the whole of the Maia world. In a mutual agreement, the archipelago was given full sovereignty toward the end of the month.

The micronation is famed for its untouched ecological beauty, especially on the main island of Vitirié, attracting many eco-tourists from across Maia, before and after independence. Psychologists and neurologists are also interested in the island's population given the increased recluse of the public without any apparent reason. Studies into the Vitirese people have been published by many renowned individuals and organisations detailing the effects of genetic drift and splintering in the world population.

As a relatively new sovereign nation to Maia, the government is yet to cement itself as well as the foreign relations Vitirié have. For an extended period of time in March 2017, the Vitirese government temporarily blocked all foreign entry to the country with no reason given, and then once again for a shorter period of time over the Easter of 2017.
